“After I called off the engagement, we tried to work on our relationship to get back to where it was, and in order to move forward with our wedding. After much time and soul-searching alone and together, we have decided to officially part ways,” Nikki said in a statement to People.

She added, “I had a beautiful and loving 6-year relationship with a wonderful man. I have the utmost respect for John, but I know this is what’s best for me.”

“It’s tough ’cause he’s like fighting really hard for me…the tables have kind of turned. I didn’t give myself long enough the first time we broke up because I got so excited he wanted kids,” she said during the episode.

“It’s just hard when you love someone so much and care for them so much, but you just can’t do it anymore. It’s not his fault, it’s not my fault. We’ve had this amazing love story and it’s just come to an end.”

By the end of the episode, Nikki concluded that she’s still finding herself again.

“Even though I was going through depression, i think when you have a relationship in the public eye, it’s like you don’t want to let your fans down. And everyone’s fairy tale was John and I getting married, Superman and Wonder Woman … so you just force yourself to believe it, too, even if you start to feel something different. I feel like I’m starting the journey of finding me again … and when I heal myself and find whats wrong with me, he will be there. And if not, it wasn’t meant to be.”

The Bella twins – Nikki and Brie Bella – make an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday (July 25) in New York City.

While on the show, the twins spoke about how when they were younger, they used to break up with each other’s boyfriends to avoid the discomfort.

“Well, when we were young, we would break up with boyfriends for each other,” Nikki said, to which Brie confirmed, “We never had to go through like the emotions of a breakup because I was like, ‘You wanna dump the guy, cool.‘”

The 41-year-old actor and WWE star stripped down in the Amy Schumer movie Trainwreck and he never discussed the scene with Nikki before accepting the role.

“Imagine watching your man do a sex scene and have the world see his big butt,” Nikki said on the latest episode of Total Divas. “You know you get visuals. I swear, I couldn’t masturbate forever because I just think of that scene.”

John previously opened up about filming the scene during an interview on Conan.

“Honestly, I didn’t think I’d get the part and I kept putting it off, not telling Nicole and not having the discussion of, ‘Hey, there may be some graphic scenes,’” John said. “So, I got it. And I couldn’t say no. So I kind of walked in one day and was like, ‘Hey, I’m kind of just doing this,’ and that was the wrong approach.”
